Books

Very good minus copy in hardcover with good jacket. Inscribed on title page, "To Jim Brantley - I hope you enjoy the book. Look forward to seeing you around the Capitol. Best Wishes, John Grisham 8-18-88" Inscription most likely to James Brantley, a fellow Mississippi lawyer. Some shelf-wear, light fading to cloth at top and base of spine, light rubbing to gilt titles on spine, fore-edge corners are just worn through. A piece of scotch tape on first pastedown, small abrasion on first endpaper. Jacket has chipping and small tears along edges, crease on front flap, crease along fore-edge of front cover. Now in mylar. We would be happy to send photos upon request.

John Grisham's first novel, a gripping legal thriller about a young attorney and the racial injustice in the Southern United States.
